Not a prayer? - By: M. Appeven, 31 Jul 2008 
Love Wirein the Blood. Think it's really intelligent, makes you pay attention. Tony Hill is an amazing character.
I'm just wondering why the Texas episode Prayer of the Bone was not includedin the DVD, copyright? And could you get it somehow, or would you have to have an American DVD-player?
Series 5 and still going strong - By: Mr. D. New, 12 Jul 2008 
This two disk set contains all four episodes of the fifth series of Wire In The Blood. The episodesin this series are The Colour Of Amber, Nocebo, The Name Of Angels & Anything You Can Do. Robson Green returns as Dr Tony Hill a psychologist & Simone Lahbib is back as D. I. Alex Fielding for her second series. Green & Lahbib have an excellent on screen chemistry which has developed from series four.
The episodes are up to the usual high standard which we have come to expect & do contain some scenes of graphic violence. There are also interviews with cast & crew which are quite interesting. In fact my only gripe is that there are no chapter stops on the episodes which means you have to fast forward to a particular scene - this was an annoying overlookin the series four dvd & should have been rectified. However, this is only a minor gripe & should not put you off buying this excellent dvd.
State of the Art Television - By: JF Rodriguez, 10 Jul 2008 This is not a review for season five only but also for all four previous seasons as well as season six currently being shown on television.
The show tells the story of a crime detective unit basedin a fictional cityin northern England. Together with the help of a brilliant but dysfunctional clinical psychologist (played to perfection by Robson Green), they try to solve the most grisly & disturbing murder cases.
Each episode lasts 90 minutes so this gives more room for character & story development. It's also more brutal, intense & violent than most television shows so not for the squeamish.
This is state of the art finely crafted crime drama featuring strong scripts & three dimensional characters you really care for. The acting by all involved is truly superb & the writing is top notch. It's riveting, captivating, engrossing, gripping & powerful stuff with enough twists & turns to keep you guessing right until the last minute. This will have you glued on your sofa & make you shiver. Turn off the lights, sit comfortably & enjoy!
